Amir Khan

He came across as a top fella.

Thought he gave an excellent interview.

 

Khan is a great lad and I wish him all the best in his career and life. Hopefully the haters will get off his back but I doubt this will ever happen, even when he becomes a multi weight champion and proves himself to be the greatest British boxer of all time.

 

I wouldn't go as far to say he will be the greatest British boxer of all time.

 

Disagree totally .... promoters make fights and the money wasnt right from either side !
Khan did want to fight them both ... but at the end of the day he has a manager to make sure he gets the right fight for the right money !

 

i agree that ne came across ok,he said he aint ready 4 marquez,no **** sherlock,what he gonna do wait till he's 50 then fight him.
khan will never be the great boxer he and franky boy said he was gonna be,as soon as he gets clipped,he gonna fail.
dwilson,i do like your posts,sssssssssssssssoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo amuseing

 

kotelnik by brutal ko

 

I hope he beats Kotelnik. There will always be animosity towards Warren fighters but I don't see taht Khan has talked any more crap than any other pro fighter sayng they're going to win a title, beat so and so or retire a legend. Yes, he's been mainstream since day one, but should he have eschewed the profile and the money and fought threatening opponents from day one just to keep the purists at ESB happy? He's now fighting a credible opponent for a credible title which, regardless of how he got into that position, should warrant our support.

 

I compleatly agree Jeff. In any dealings i had with Khan i have found him to be a really top lad. Amir and his team were sound in the Gomez fight. Then when we went over to his gym for sparing his team couldnt have been nicer.

Also i wont forget that his dad shar went out of his way to arrange for me to meet Freddie Roach, knowing im Irish he knew how much i wanted to meet him and went out of his way to sort it. He didnt need to do it and i dont forget things like that.

 

I'm a fan of him, I was made up when he beat Barrera after all I heard in the week leading up to the fight was how people couldn't wait for him to be knocked out again. He doesn't give up and is out to prove the critics wrong, a credit to the sport.

 

I have just watched this interview and I agree with Jeff. Very honest and humble interview. Said he's not ready for Marquez yet and that he badly wants to rematch Prescott. Said he won't be able to retire from boxing without having that rematch. Also talked about Murray and Thaxton.

He's gone up in my estimation.
